ok Thanks, i will post if it works. we have had the same last 5 phones, in between i had a samsung epix.

got new battery for 4.27 and works well.

Does it last any longer? Reminds me of what I went through with my Samsung Intrepid.

Think this battery would work if the cover would be reworked alittle?

That battery should work but there's no way that back cover would fit.

Battery has a Power Rating between 500mah - 1600mah.
WTH is that 500 to 1600??? lol

So I read this thread and thought.... wow this is great! New battery for my Focus for less than $10!
I went on to ebay and found this auction: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItemVersion&view=all&item=130469767461&tid=508244445003
I bought the battery and it arrived looking "almost" identical to my original battery with the exception of some of the fonts being slightly different which is something I have seen on phone batteries I got from AT&T so I thought everything should be ok.
I went on to use it and it behaved like a new battery would for the first few days and then it started having problem staying charged. I would wake up to a partially discharged battery after having it plugged in the whole night.
It finally died after 10 days. I contacted the seller and he or she claimed that the battery is no longer available and I will get a refund instead of a replacement. According to the item's ebay page the same item was sold to over 100 people.
Guess the deal was too good to be true and I should consider myself lucky that the battery died and not exploded on me.
Just want to share my experience.
Cheers

I ordered a pair of non OEM replacement batteries for my Focus to help me through a 2 day bus trip. I know what you mean. The batteries were fully charged but died after about 4 hours without so much as using the phone. I paid $30 for the pair on Amazon.
Sent from my Samsung Focus using XDA Windows Phone 7 App

Has anyone tried the extended Mugen battery for the Focus?
I'm seriously considering picking something up since no one else seems to be producing extended batteries for the Focus. The $100 price tag is a serious turn off though... I absolutely refuse to buy it unless I can find a solid review on it or something.

I got mine from Seidio on Monday; not a miracle battery but definitley better life than OEM. If you don't like the hunch-back look and want a second battery this is the way to go. I would extimate that it is giving me roughly 10% better life as they advertise.

Seidio battery may give a smidge more life; build is pretty poor though, and seems to be made of some paper-like or cardboard/plastic material, covered with not very well-fitting cellophane. If you never remove your battery, may not be an issue, but I suspect this one wouldn't take very many change-outs without getting rather worn. Also seems like it heats up a bit more...

Have anyone buy from here

Their batteries are pretty cheap. Rating from Reseller Rating is quite good too.
I am using 2 of these and they work real nice, very high quality batteries comes sealed in shrink wrap plastic which prevents air and moisture from getting into these batteries that kills it's ultimate capacity. Lasts longer than my original one from sprint... I tried those cheap $10 or less batteries before and their capacity fluctuate wildly, don't get those, these are nice, check out my rating:

Hi...
I need a couple of new high capacity batteries with a high mAh rating.
Do any of you have info on the best place to buy ?
Id rather purchase from a European vendor but will consider importing worldwide.
TIA.
Regards,
Mark.
i just bought a 3600mAh mugen off ebay. works great my first week using it. i get between a 1.5 and 2 days of usage where previously, i'd be dead by 9pm of day 1.
what size battery is that ?
I forgot to mention that I need a regular sized battery, IE one without a new battery cover.
...so it fits into my case.
If it is regular size, what's the name of the ebay seller ?
TIA.
Mark.

How's that 3600mAh battery working out? Where did you purchase it?
Seem seidio is selling 3200mah batteries now too.
http://www.seidioonline.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWCATS&Category=1200
and i was so hopeful with the ebay batteries

3500mAh for Defy

DealExtreme now have a 3500 mAh battery with cover Link
However I don't think it's 3500 mAh and the quality is probably low and it wont be water resitance because it miss the extra internal cover for the battery.
there is such topic already, and this battery is the same, that already more than month selling on ebay
It's thicker than stock. I have ordered one similar to that as well. Just waiting on it to arrive. There is another topic here that is already about extended batteries for the defy. Your link does include the rear battery cover. However, I would not try and dip that in water unless you put some kind of waterproofing on the replacement back cover. Getting better battery life for cheap does have its disadvantages as well. Unless some company makes one that retains water resistance with a large battery and replacement back cover.

Oh it exist a topic like that already. I missed the "Extended Battery Idea" topic ._.
Anyway Dealextreme is a more know seller then ebay sellers so I would go for Dealextreme insted of ebay.
agree, i might consider the larger battery
This is really interesting! I want one too but if any of you were to buy it, i would be cautious since dealxtreme is known for having cheap chinese made products, theres an american company i found online that sells this battery: http://www.wirelessground.com/motorola-defy-extended-high-capacity-battery.html just sayin
Another dealextreme 3500mAh
Now there's also this one:
dealextreme.com/p/3500mah-rechargeable-extended-battery-pack-cover-for-motorola-mb525-73564 - 3500mAh Rechargeable Extended Battery Pack + Cover for Motorola MB525
In addition to the previous

Both back cases have no waterproofing. As (remaining) capacity is probably more related to age of the battery than to price; I would pick the newer white one. Anyway, you only loose $11 instead of ~$30 for the ebay options.
I just got a D.Seven extended battery for US$13
Its more than double the thickness of a normal battery, comes with an extra cover which makes you lose the waterproofness....and my shell doesnt fit now, the phone is now damn bulky...
Dont think i'll be using it anytime soon, unless going camping or something
Iit would have created a smaller battery

Hi.
And what about the battery life ? Huge improvement ? Or insignificant ? Thx for the test.
It would be so uncomfortable to carry it after using this battery.
so....is it works?
at least should have double time usage with this battery....
... right?
I tested my D.Seven 3000ma battery....battery life increased by 20 - 30% only...

Help in buying new extended battery.

Hey guys i am planning to buy a little boost to my hd2. I like to buy an extended battery+battery door with kick stand+protective backcase ( that flexible cover pannel which protects from drops,scratches etc)
And the problems are, as i never used an extended battery b4, i dont know which one is good, is there any 3000+ mA version?
Have any one used such a higher capacity one which realy works? Also i need the battery door with kick stand.
The other thing is that can i get a protective case that supports the dimensions (ie,the backdoor bulge when using an extended battery) of extended battery??
Guys pls help me out. I am from india and so pls provide me a dealer that ships to india.
Thanks in advance.

You are so helpful...

You could buy something like this :
http://www.ebay.com/itm/2400mAh-Extended-Battery-Door-Cover-For-HTC-HD2-HD-2-/220713693102?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item33638fafae
Free shipping to India. When it comes to original extended battery it is almost impossible to find it..
The one linked above can be found as cheap as £3.99, the quality of the rear door as very poor & battery is closer to 1800mAh than 2400.
If budget & availability exists get original HTC extended battery or look at the CS extended battery as another cheap easily sourced option.
Looked both links. Confused... as always.. hundreds of options.( in ebay itself). thats why i asked for some one who used a real extended battery. I meen pls provide a link to a battery that is real extended and not fake china ones,which any of u have used( i never gonna belive or buy by checking wht internet says), and is proved good.
Also need a backdoor with kickstand and a protective case tht support extended batterie's backdoor.
Currently i am using the default battery and with a flexible shell type protective case. The case is originaly for desire hd. But hd2 fits into it perfectly. All i have to do is to cut open a little portion of case for led flash and speaker. ( lol.. spend almost a week in search of hd2 protective case in almost entire state itself. No luck. So bought this one)
HD2 HYPERDROID EXTREME EDITION V6.0.1 @ FIKERT KERNAL.
Why don't you just buy a spare battery+external charger? I have bought those from dealextreme it was less than 10$ and after 6months I'm still very happy with it
Simply the best one with kick stand quality back cover & only one with genuine quoted mAh is HTC genuine extended battery.
Second option is Mugen but it is as expensive as HTC genuine & mAh rating is a little over stated & back door is not as good.
The HTC genuine also has no issues using all cell power but some cheaper ones require pulling & re-inserting at 50% level.
The cheaper ones on eBay are appalling quality all round & a pointless bulge with little extra power.
Conclusion=Only decent extended battery & kickstand door is HTC one so search eBay or mobile stores & find one shipping to India.

I bought an official HTC extended battery from this ebay user and it's holds up great, if your like me and use you're HD2 a lot during the day this battery is a must have. Here's a review/info for it http://youtu.be/LgKiMSSX9Rw.
For a case that fits an extended battery go to this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1316516
P.S. make an offer for the battery i got mines for $38.
Cheap standard sized CS battery with worldwide shipping is £5.35 at moment on eBay.
Not bad for spare or to get an old battery dead HD2 running for a while, also good for those with no local options ...
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/120887562999
Good thing is if never arrives or does not meet your standards the chance of full refund is very high ...
One hint:
If ur planning to buy a cheap ass battery, you can even better use ur stock battery, cause these cheap battery's can only destroy ur hd2.. and doesn't expand the lifetime that much.

Trying to look for a decent extended battery

Just wondering if anyone bought one of these http://www.ebay.com/itm/1X-Gold-420...880538?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item416dcac91a or bought a simular battery with higher mah then the stock but keeps the phone the same size. Not looking to put on one of those crazy hulking back covers.
Thanks in advance
Personally had issues with batteries from china/hong kong, also they have been know to lie about size of memory on memory cards and basically just labeling over stock batteries with fake labels. If you were wanting an extend battery I would suggest getting one from a reputable company such as mugen or another name brand company. I highly doubt a battery less than $20 will be any better than the oem. If there were a way for samsung to get a larger mah battery in that size they would have. I think your best bet is either getting another oem battery or purchasing an extended battery with the larger housing. IMO
Mugen is definitely the best battery wise, so if u can find a good case with or without wearing the back cover then I'd go with that if that's in your price range
How about a 2nd OEM battery to swap.

This is what I recommend.
I posted here showing a picture of the Onite extended battery I have and had someone comment on it showing that is wasn't fully snapped on to the back cover, well it was. The picture of the Mugen extended case, as provided in the same thread, has the official picture of the GNote2 with the extended case on it and it blatantly shows it not connect. Check out the thread.
I had great success with anker batteries on my note 1. Lasted as long or longer as the stock battery. Still being used by my son after 10 months of use and getting same duration out of them. Just got the qcell 3800mah extended battery for my wife's skyrocket and she has gone over 2 days on it now. Not sure about the lifespan yet as she has only had it for 2 weeks.

I used the 50% off code listed in the accessories forum to get a battery directly from Samsung for $25. Well spent for piece of mind and two batteries is likely more than I will ever need. Carry one as a spare and rotate them every few days or so.
Not sure of the code is still good.

That's a lie, I've had this battery in my n85, it was worse than the original, and was to be much better.
I have had great experiences with Hyperion and Qcell batteries. My mom is using my old GS3 and she says that the Qcell extended battery is still lasting her 2 days. There is no way that Mugen is 4 times better than either of those batteries. It does have NFC though. When my gs3 was new, no extended batteries had nfc, but they eventually added it. My guess is, in a month or two, Qcell will add nfc to their case. So if you buy one now and one when they add nfc you will have 2 extended batteries for half the cost of the Mugen. As soon as Hyperion comes out with a case for the extended battery, I am going to buy theirs.

True, i forgot abou that. Charger and battery for the sameprice of just the battery.
Also any battery that claims to have much more capacity (3800mAh - 4200mAh or more) in a standard size batter is BS. Everyone dreams of that mythical 5000mAh standard size battery, but it doesn't exist.
Unless I'm going camping for more than 3 days I can't see needing my standard battery with a standard spare.
I got this one from Amazon, And I've been super stoked!
(sorry, I'm too new, it stripped my URL)
The brand is Onite, and it was $24.98
it's a 6500 mAh battery, and cover. I've been wailing on wifi and wireless data all day while streaming pandora Non-Stop to my bluetooth beats, and at 10:42 PM, I still have 48% left.
This is the first phone I've had that I can talk with customers all day, and not have to put it back on the charger once.
A full day with heavy usage, and battery to spare at bedtime? Winner in my book!

I'd like to know if this battery is any better than the stock one, too.
I like that you don't need a larger back cover with this ebay one.... Anyone any experience with this battery? Also, with the larger batteries that DO require an extended back cover, how is NFC affected?
NFC won't work, because NFC antenna is in the original back cover.

you actually get nfc antenna included in custom cover, for example see here:

There are varieties of extra capacity batteries for 4X, up to 4800 mAh @ 3.7V, but most require some custom back cover which usually doesn't include NFC anntena, and the true capacity is in question as is the quality (longevity) of these batts. Mugen's deal is genuine (from various reviews and remarks), the back cover has NFC, but the price is just insane, $90 for the cover and battery! And they're not that great:

Yeah, I'm thinking the $90 for a freaking battery is way overkill on the price tag. Unless that thing had a mini-arc reactor that can power the phone for a whole year without any slowdown, then the price is warranted. I've switched my original battery for the Onite 4800mAH and the performance is just about as impressive as the touted Mugen one for more than half of the Mugen price. Average non-heavy use on a single charge goes up to at least 2 to 2.5 full days to reach zero charge.
I've also played around batteries of varying sized from the gold 2450mAH up to the 4800mAH that I now use and I have noticed that depending on which battery you use, the phone either heats up insanely fast or rarely heats up at all. The gold 2450mAH battery I have has just as much of a pitiful charge as the original battery that came with the phone but for some reason, the recorded temp rarely strays between 77°f to 88°f at it's lightest and heaviest usage. The 4300mAH battery also shows the same readings as the gold battery. The Onite one I have that is 4800mAH is almost as normal as the original battery - in that it's temp rises depending on usage from 77°f up to 110°f (110°f at the worst without any throttling at all, graphite heat sink pad included). I have no idea why that is, but if someone here can explain, please do so.
As for NFC, I barely use it at all, but I do have more than one back cover that includes the NFC antenna for extended batteries if I ever feel the need to use NFC.

2500 mAh for that price? .... No Way. This is also to good to be true. And in 99% of all cases where something seems to be to good to be true, it usually is.

Yeah, I'm thinking the $90 for a freaking battery is way overkill on the price tag. Unless that thing had a mini-arc reactor that can power the phone for a whole year without any slowdown, then the price is warranted. I've switched my original battery for the Onite 4800mAH and the performance is just about as impressive as the touted Mugen one for more than half of the Mugen price. Average non-heavy use on a single charge goes up to at least 2 to 2.5 full days to reach zero charge.
I've also played around batteries of varying sized from the gold 2450mAH up to the 4800mAH that I now use and I have noticed that depending on which battery you use, the phone either heats up insanely fast or rarely heats up at all. The gold 2450mAH battery I have has just as much of a pitiful charge as the original battery that came with the phone but for some reason, the recorded temp rarely strays between 77°f to 88°f at it's lightest and heaviest usage. The 4300mAH battery also shows the same readings as the gold battery. The Onite one I have that is 4800mAH is almost as normal as the original battery - in that it's temp rises depending on usage from 77°f up to 110°f (110°f at the worst without any throttling at all, graphite heat sink pad included). I have no idea why that is, but if someone here can explain, please do so.
As for NFC, I barely use it at all, but I do have more than one back cover that includes the NFC antenna for extended batteries if I ever feel the need to use NFC.

Can you link the onite battery you mentioned? and any suggestions to a battery that doesn't require larger back cover?

A larger capacity battery without larger backcover is impossible. The capacity of a battery is directly related to it's size (using same technology). Without using a physically bigger battery it's not possible to get more capacity, unless they invent a new technology. Maybe they can squize a few more mAh in there, but that's it.
So if you want a significantly larger capacity, you have to have a battery that,s substantialy bigger and therefore require a different back-cover.

I have a question. I have a leather flip case.
Because the back of the case is made of plastic and is not thin. Is there a similar case for the 4500 mah battery?

Did anyone tried this battery,I'm planning to buy this MPJ battery or Aku Polar,MPJ gives 200 mah more juice on paper,but in reality ?
And its cheaper than Aku,what do you think ? I have two 1800 mah golden batteries,one doesnt work and I plan to order stronger battery for daily use and leave stock and gold for backup
I can recommend this battery it gives more time of use

I just bought the MPJ 5000mAh Extended Battery for my s2, I'll report back when I get it to see just how accurate this will be. I figured $22 and can be returned, so why not try it.
They actually have their own site, http://www.mpjbattery.com/
Which most no-name batteries from China do not. So who knows!

keep us updated
Got the battery yesterday, I'm fully charging it as we speak in an external charger. The battery itself is massive and heavy (you would think it was actually 5000mah just by visually inspecting). I will update and post back after I put it in. The back cover fits perfectly and tightly, pleasantly surprised about that.
My last extended bat was on my my touch 4g, so I have experience with them. Let's see how this pans out!
